Event Details

Speed of Sound - Aerodynamics and experimental acoustics

Speed of Sound interprets a history of aero-acoustic advancement through a half-day of talks and performances reactiviating the decommissioned space of Q121 and remarkable air return duct. Manipulation of acoustics plays an important role for twenty-first century developments in aviation and experimental music. Investigating ideas of noise and turbulence, and approaches to sensing and recording, this event converges findings in aerodynamics and experimental sound practices as invited artists and speakers engage with the physical uses of sound.

Finding a new soundtrack for the wind tunnel - a live set created to embody the space and its physics.

Cindytalk (Editions Mego)

A set embodying the micro-events of wind flow and dynamics, found here in a push of elemental sources and synthesis.

Teleplasmiste (Mark Pilkington/ Strange Attractor with Michael J York)Testing the space with an experimental demonstration of standing waves and resonant frequencies in the unique acoustic environment of the tunnels.

Aki Pasoulas & Paul Fretwell (MAAST)Testing the limits of the Kent University's full panoramic Genelec sound system installed throughout the event spaces, through a diffusion in acousmatic composition.

Sound as Terror (Royal College of Art)A presentation of sonic research into the use of drones in contemporary conflict.

Graham Rood (PHD Sound & vibration research / wind tunnel engineer / FAST Museum)An introduction to the history and practice of aeroacoustic research in the wind tunnels at Farnborough.

A 3pm coach will be collecting passengers from the bus stops at the top of Vauxhall Bridge Road, just across the road from Victoria tube station, and driving directly to the Wind Tunnels. The coach will return from Farnborough between 9pm and 9.30pm, arriving back at London Victoria by no later than 10.30pm. Booking on the coach is essential as spaces are limited.
